The Back to the TimePiece documentary film tells the story of this 1970’s Liverpool nightclub.

Although predominantly a black club, it was one of the very few clubs in Liverpool where the races could mix harmoniously. Led by its inspirational DJ Les Spaine, the TimePiece would become known as the ‘North West’s best FUNK and SOUL nightclub’.

The TimePiece is as important to Liverpool’s musical heritage as the Cavern or Eric’s.

This is a documentary that deserves to be seen by any historians of soul and black music, and indeed by anyone interested in the story of dance music, or the club scene, in the UK.

DJ Nature a.k.a Milo is in basement style DJ duties on Friday 30th March. This will be his first proper UK gig for a while.

Skin Deep Sessions is the coming together of the original tracks that we have all grown to love that can only be known as THE CLASSICS, with the biggest movement in deep dance music to date known as HOUSE. The Deep, Soulful grooves create a dance floor that feels the emotions, the rhythms, the sweat….., An environment for you to be uplifted and feel free to express yourself.

Lenny Fontana and Eddie Gordon, have produced the documentary ‘LEGENDS OF THE DANCEFLOOR’ A piece of Paradise’ interviewing many of the US and UK’s artists and personalities who were in one way or the other connected to the development of Larry Levan’s short lived but rewarding career as a DJ and
